Really Enjoyed the book. I Wish it had one more chapter with advice on how to apply the principles taught. What i learned: blame is pointless, happiness is a choice, most of us are victims in a fake story, need to identify fake labels and create new “agreements”, need to take control and choose love and happiness.

There is nothing like this book. Reader does a great job. This is a yearly listen/read for me. Finish in 1-2 gym sessions or a short drive. Great reminders that cause self reflection. Pick 1-2 notes to work on.

How the Courage to Be Vulnerable Transforms the Way We Live, Love, Parent, and Lead

Every day we experience the uncertainty, risks, and emotional exposure that define what it means to be vulnerable or to dare greatly. Based on 12 years of pioneering research, Dr. Brené Brown dispels the cultural myth that vulnerability is weakness and argues that it is, in truth, our most accurate measure of courage. Brown explains how vulnerability is both the core of difficult emotions like fear, grief, and disappointment, and the birthplace of love, belonging, joy, empathy, innovation, and creativity.

Thank god for Brene's Voice!

I like that she packed in good content into a brief book. I like that it was 6 hours, not 20. Great book, impacted me as a parent and leader at work. I’ll do better at building people around me by encouraging/recognizing creativity and effort. I’ll be less critical of myself and others and try to focus on changing bad behaviors not labeling people/myself as bad.

Why we think it’s a great listen: Gaiman’s not just an award-winning author, but a narrator who earns rave reviews – and fields requests from other authors to perform their books, too! Nobody Owens, known to his friends as Bod, is a normal boy. He would be completely normal if he didn't live in a sprawling graveyard, being raised and educated by ghosts, with a solitary guardian who belongs to neither the world of the living nor of the dead....

Decent story, not what I was expecting

Book was recommended to me by a friend, I got it without knowing much. Turns out it's just a nice story maybe written for a teenage crowd. No lessons to be learned or shared etc.

Everywhere hailed as a masterpiece of historical adventure, this enthralling narrative recounts the experiences of 12 American sailors who were shipwrecked off the coast of Africa in 1815, captured by desert nomads, sold into slavery, and subjected to a hellish two-month journey through the bone-dry heart of the Sahara. The ordeal of these men - who found themselves tested by barbarism, murder, starvation, death, dehydration, and hostile tribes that roamed the desert on camelback - is made indelibly vivid in this gripping account of courage, brotherhood, and survival.

Cool story. Not very engaging for me

The story in general was good but this was not a page turner for me. I was pushing through to get to the end instead of anxious to get back to it…

West with the Night is the story of a remarkable woman molded and shaped by many things: the African jungle, a certain dog, horses, airplanes, friendships with white men and black. There is no life, no story quite like it.

Top Notch Writing; Riveting Stories

Good story, well read.

Enjoyed the book. Thought there would be more points made about life in general, not just listening to a story being told. When markham does take time to reflect, she she makes great points.
